Abstract
A timer assembly is configured with a motor with slim construction so as to provide a thinner and more compact timer assembly. A timer assembly with a thinner profile and reduced thickness is achieved by incorporating the motor within the timer's baseplate. Additional advantages may be achieved by positioning the motor within an area defined by the baseplate and the time indicator, or by mounting the motor in an offset manner with respect to the baseplate. Further, the orientation of the motor may be changed to mount the motor to the front or rear of the baseplate to provide for an additional thickness reduction.
